CRESTVIEW HIGH SCHOOL 2019-2020 CURRICULUM GUIDE Page 1
As a student enrolled in Crestview High School, you are given the opportunity to select
coursework each spring for the following year. It is important that you involve your parents in
course selection, that you make certain you meet the prerequisites, and that you keep high
school graduation requirements and career objectives in mind.
This guide is designed to aid you in making appropriate choices by providing brief program
and course descriptions, prerequisites, and other information related to this process. In order
to complete registration successfully, you are urged to follow the steps below:
1. READ the curriculum guide carefully.
2. REVIEW the list of graduation requirements and determine which requirements have
been met and which courses need to be taken next year. Consider courses which
need to be repeated because of lost credit.
3. TALK to your parents and teachers about course selections and appropriate
academic levels (general, honors, advanced studies, or vocational) as determined by
your classroom teacher.
General – These courses are designed for in-depth instruction that challenges
students. These classes are suitable for all students.
Honors – These courses are designed for self-motivated students who wish to pursue
a more challenging curriculum while in high school.
Advanced Studies (AP/AICE/Dual Enrollment) – These college-level courses are
designed for highly motivated students who wish to pursue potential college credit
in high school.
Vocational – These courses are designed to prepare students for employment
and/or post-secondary education in a career of their choice.
4. SELECT courses that will correspond to or complement your goals for the future.
Course selection represents a commitment on the part of the student and parent to
complete the schedule of classes chosen. Choose your courses carefully as requests for
schedule changes will only be considered for the following reasons:
Scheduling error (example – request Algebra I and receive Algebra II)
Failure to complete a prerequisite course or requirement
Graduation or college requirement omitted from schedule
Special programs requiring unique schedules (such as dual enrollment or music courses)
Credit recovered for course and/or course completed during the summer
Duplicate course
Blank period on schedule
Be sure that you meet the prerequisites for all selected courses. If a registration form is not
returned with all of the necessary requirements completed, a counselor will make course
selections for you based on class availability. Students should take a combination of six or
more courses.
Special Note: Additionally, the administration reserves the right to make necessary changes
based on class size and teacher load as determined by the state of Florida class size
requirements. The number of course requests and teacher availability will determine whether
or not some courses will be offered. As a reminder, CHS does not accept teacher requests in
regard to student scheduling.

Students scoring a Level 1 on FSA Reading, regardless of promotion or retention status, will be placed
in an Intensive Reading class. Students who do not pass the Algebra 1 EOC will be placed in an
Intensive Math class.
Course request cards will be distributed before the end of the year so you can verify your selections.
There will be no changes to course selections after May 31, 2019. The master schedule will be built to
accommodate these requests and course changes will not be permitted. Due to class size
amendment, these policies will be strictly enforced.
Crestview High will adhere to the schedule change policy below for the beginning of each semester.
First 3 Days of the Semester: The only adjustments allowed are for students who fit one or more of the
following situations; no routine requests to change classes can be accepted.
Students who have no schedule at all should report to Guidance during PAWS.
Students who have no course during a particular period should report to Guidance during that
period.
Students who are scheduled for a class previously completed successfully should check in with
the teacher and report to Guidance that period.
Seniors who are missing a required course for graduation should fill out an add/drop form and
turn it into Guidance.
After the First 3 Days of the Semester until the End of the 4th Week:
Students must request an appointment with their counselor to change a schedule.
Level changes (such as dropping an honors course for a regular course) must be requested by
the teacher after a parent-teacher conference via phone, email, or in person.
After the End of the 4th Week until the End of the Semester:
Students must request an appointment with their counselor to change a schedule.
Students will receive a grade of “F” for the semester in the dropped class and the course will be
placed on the transcript.
Reminders:
Any request for a teacher change must be made by the parent.
Any parent concern will require a conference that includes the teacher, parent, student, and
administrator.
Crestview High School does not accept specific teacher requests.
The administration reserves the right to make necessary changes based on class size and
teacher load as determined by the state of Florida class size requirements.
All schedule change requests are due by the last day of school, May 31, 2019.
When a student enters Crestview High School for the first time, he or she is assigned to a PAWS group
and a PAWS advisor. With few exceptions, each student will stay with this group and advisor until
graduation. PAWS groups meet on certain Wednesdays after third period. PAWS will include such
activities as academic planning, conducting school business, elections, and report card distribution.

Colleges want students to be as well prepared as possible. CHS offers three levels of instructional
difficulty: general, honors, and advanced studies (Advanced Placement and AICE courses). General
level students should master the requirements outlined by the Florida State Standards and can expect
20 to 30 minutes of homework per day in each course. Honors level students should have FSA scores of
level three or higher, a solid work ethic, and good attendance. Approximately 30 to 45 minutes of
homework per day in each course can be expected. Advanced Placement or AICE students must have
FSA scores at level three or above for optimal success, a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher, a solid work
ethic, and excellent attendance. Courses require college-level analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. All
students will sit for the AP or AICE exam for each course. Some instructors may require summer work.
Approximately one hour of homework per day per course can be expected. Students are strongly
encouraged by universities, colleges, and CHS to strive for the highest, most rigorous level of coursework
in which they can be successful.
Advanced International Certificate of Education is a program
in which students can take an advanced academic
curriculum and assessment program written and administered
by the University of Cambridge in England. All public universities and community colleges in Florida
award up to 30 hours of college credits for AICE exams passed. All students enrolled in an AICE class will
take the AICE exam at the end of the school year. AICE courses have a weighted GPA value. Please
check for pre-requisite requirements.
Crestview High School participates in College Board’s nationally
recognized Advanced Placement (AP) program. AP courses provide
college level instruction in several areas that help prepare students for
the rigorous coursework encountered in college. In May of each year,
students take the AP exam written, administered, and graded by the College Board. The score on this
exam will not affect a student’s grade in the course. Some colleges place students or award college
credit based on these test scores. AP courses have a weighted GPA value. Because AP courses are
taught at the college level, excellent study habits and a strong foundation in the specific discipline are
necessary for success. Please check for pre-requisite requirements.
Florida HB7067 (Section 4, Section 1002.45) requires students to complete one
online course during high school for graduation. This requirement is satisfied by
taking an online course through Okaloosa Online, a virtual education provider
approved by the State Board of Education, or an online dual enrollment course.
An online course taken for high school credit in grade 6, grade 7, or grade 8 also
fulfills this requirement. Numerous courses available at Crestview High School MEET
the online course graduation requirement. Look for the online course icon.

Take schoolwork seriously because your GPA begins here. Ninth grade counts toward college admission and
the Bright Futures Scholarship.
Create a four-year high school plan. Think about what you’d like to accomplish in the next four years.
Make sure you know which high school courses are required by colleges and that you’re taking the right
classes. You can ask your advisor about what those “right” courses are.
Make sure your course selections are preparing you for your future goals. Stretch yourself and consider
advanced classes: Honors/AICE/AP, especially in your areas of strength.
Develop good attendance habits.
Join service organizations at Crestview High and in the community that may expose you to new interests and
possible careers. Investigate and participate in community service projects.
Visit www.collegeboard.com and www.floridashines.org online and become familiar with the resources
available there. Sign up at bigfuture.collgeboard.org and begin your personal plan for attending college.
Develop your organization and time management skills. Use your planner!
Start thinking about your life after school, including the types of jobs that might interest you. This will change,
possibly quite often, but it is good to explore the possibilities.
Identify your interests – likes and dislikes – not just in classes but in every area. This will help you focus on
your goals.
Talk to other people, such as your school counselor, teachers, recently employed college graduates, or
professionals in the community about careers you might find interesting.
Take advantage of everything high school has to offer. Participate in extracurricular activities; academics
aren’t everything. Explore your interests in sports, school clubs, performing groups, and community service
activities.
Save for college. It’s not too late to put money aside for college. Every little bit helps!
Review your course selections and be sure they are preparing you for your future goals. When you meet with
your advisor, ensure that your course selections are challenging enough to prepare you for college. Take the
most rigorous course of study you can. Make sure you are taking any prerequisites for advanced-level courses.
Check the requirements for the Bright Futures Scholarship at www.floridashines.org. Maintain and improve
your GPA.
Be an active participant in clubs - consider leadership roles and continue working on volunteer hours in
community service. Remember that colleges would rather see real in-depth involvement in a few activities
instead of a loose connection to several.
Be certain to take the PSAT test in October.
Attend college and career fairs that take place in the fall.
Begin your college search by developing a list of colleges that you would be interested in attending. Take
advantage of vacations or other family travel to visit colleges to see what they’re like. Even if you have no
interest in attending the college you are visiting, it will help you learn what to look for in a college.
Begin to prepare a student résumé with community service hours, leadership roles, and academic and
athletic achievements and awards.
Update your personal plan on bigfuture.collgeboard.org and explore possible careers.
If you are interested in attending a U.S. military academy, you should request a pre-candidate questionnaire.
Explore summer opportunities. Look for a job, internship or volunteer position that will help you learn about a
field of interest.
CRESTVIEW HIGH SCHOOL 2019-2020 CURRICULUM GUIDE Page 26
FALL Take as many AP courses as you successfully can. AP courses give you the opportunity to earn
college credit while still in high school. Also, colleges look favorably on students who take a
rigorous course of study.
Maintain and improve your GPA. Grades can make the difference in whether or not you receive
scholarships and grants.
Attend the college fair held at the NWF State College.
Register to take the PSAT in October. It is the only way to qualify for the National Merit Scholarship
Program.
Become familiar with online resources at www.collegeboard.com and www.floridashines.org.
Meet with College Representatives when they visit Crestview High.
Update your plan on bigfuture.collgeboard.org.
SPRING Register and take the ACT and SAT exams.
Write a résumé. If portfolios, audition tapes, or writing samples are required for admission or

recommendation; start with teachers, counselors and employers.
Discuss your family’s financial resources and review plans for financial aid.
Check the scholarship room for information regarding potential scholarships.
Register to take the ASVAB test. This test provides you with a free career evaluation. You will also
be provided with information regarding job placement if you enter the military.
Students who are interested in seeking a U.S. military service academy appointment should begin
the application process.
Request a transcript in Guidance so you can review and verify credits.
Student Athletes should register with the NCAA clearing house.
SUMMER Consider enrolling in academic courses at the community college, pursuing summer school
programs, completing an internship or working as a volunteer.
Make appointments for visits to college campuses, especially if visiting during the summer. Meet
with admission counselors.
Prepare and submit application packages. Review deadlines and requirements, such as test
scores, transcripts, essays, and recommendations. Give teachers, counselors, employers or other
adults at least a month to complete the recommendation forms and provide a short fact sheet
about yourself with each letter request. APPLY EARLY!
CRESTVIEW HIGH SCHOOL 2019-2020 CURRICULUM GUIDE Page 27
FALL Take a full course load. Continue to challenge yourself by taking AP courses. Colleges look very
favorably on students who take a rigorous course of study.
Do not let “senioritis” set in! Colleges want to see strong academics in your senior year. Colleges
do look at second semester senior grades.
Continue to evaluate colleges and narrow your choices. Request your transcripts be sent to all
colleges to which you are applying.
Monitor applications to make sure all materials are sent on time. Create a master list or calendar
that includes fees, dates, and registration deadlines for tests you’ll take; college application due
dates; other materials you’ll need such as recommendations, transcripts, etc. and their submission
requirements.
Review scholarship information in Guidance and online at crestviewbulldogs.org.
Visit www.collegeboard.com and www.floridashines.org online and continue to make use of the
resources available there.
Attend the college fair held at the NWF State College.
Sign up to meet with college representatives when they visit Crestview High.
Take the ACT and SAT or re-take if needed. Send official ACT, SAT, and AP score results to your
prospective colleges from www.actstudent.org and www.collegeboard.com.
Gather information including income tax records required to file the FAFSA.
Register for the Bright Futures Scholarship online, beginning December 1st.
SPRING After January 1, but before the earliest college or scholarship deadline, file the FAFSA. An error
free completed FAFSA application is now a requirement for the Florida Bright Futures Scholarships.
Apply early to maximize your chances for receiving additional financial aid.
Monitor any spring submission applications to make sure all materials are sent on time.
Secure nominations and complete applications for US service academy appointments in January.
Send a Thank You note to everyone who has helped with your applications.
Wait for college admissions decisions and financial aid awards letters. You need to determine the
school that best meets your academic and financial needs. Many schools have an early May
deadline to accept or decline offers of admission. Some may require a deposit to reserve a space
in the freshman class.
Apply for housing and submit required deposits if you plan to live on campus.

Use this guide to help you create a solid academic portfolio. Your course schedule may seem like a
random selection of classes to you, but college admission officers and even potential employers see it
as a blueprint of your high school education. They are looking for a solid foundation of learning that
you can build on in higher education and in the workforce of today.
Choose at least five, or better yet six, solid academic classes every semester. Take the most rigorous
selections in which you can be successful, especially in your areas of strength.
You must take English every year. Traditional courses in American and English literature help you to
improve your writing skills, reading comprehension and vocabulary.
In college math classes and in most careers, you’ll need algebra and geometry. Both are required in
the State of Florida for High School Graduation and completing them early will enable you to enroll in
advanced science and math classes in high school. College admission counselors will see that you are
ready for higher-level work.
Science teaches you to think analytically and apply theories to observations of the natural world.
Laboratory classes let you test what you’ve learned through hands-on work. Three credits are required
for graduation: Biology and two equally rigorous science classes. Colleges like to see a fourth science
credit as evidence that you are willing to challenge yourself.
Understand local and world events that are happening now by studying the culture and history that
have shaped them. Social sciences round out your core curriculum. One credit each in World and
American History and one-half have credit each in Economics and US Government are required in
Florida for High School graduation.
Solid foreign language study shows colleges that you are willing to stretch beyond the basics. Many
colleges require at least two years of foreign language study for admission and some prefer more.
Research indicates that students who participate in the arts often do better in school and on
standardized tests. The arts help you recognize patterns, discern differences and similarities, and
exercise your mind in unique ways, often outside of a traditional classroom setting.
More and more college courses and jobs require at least a basic knowledge of computers. Computer
skills also can help you do research and schoolwork better and faster.
Once they have determined that a particular student could succeed academically, many schools
look at a variety of other factors. Participation in PE and competitive sports often helps you develop
desirable character traits such as fellowship, perseverance, leadership, discipline, and determination.
